Eisenhower was also the allied Commander in WWII. So he is very aware of having to make difficult decisions. He knew the invasion was going to be heavy casualties. Which it was. God I could hear the liberals screaming like banshees (in German of course) if we had the same sissy mindset back then like we have today.

President Dwight Eisenhower, Republican, uttered these words on November 8, 1954:
"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid."
In addition to being a war hero, a decent fellow, a moderate Republican before they began to go extinct, President Eisenhower apparently was also quite the prophet. Little George W. Bush was about 9 years old at the time...
And here is his speech warning of the Military Industrial Complex
